[LETTErt Vld dna' be a matter of doubt. liable to dispute. eweas I This is the advice of ably deferred. • - •I i.~ .r E 0 It TIl E SU N. ON LEGITIMACY. Mr. Enn - or;,—l have ‘varned you of the rest 'less and versevering spirit of Republicanism, al ivay3 ‘vork to undermine our Constitution, under pretence of innp6wing it ; or under tine roil; more impudently false pretence of restoring it tfr its original purity. This is the real object of the mast a,ctive of those men who clamour for a Return?. elPorliament. A few, perhaps, are took enough to believe, that a system 'which has such unparalleled blessings for so long a period, stands in need of retorming ;. but they, whose tools these are, know better ; and are well aware that the attempt to reform the Parliament would di:s(l . °y its balance, and, with it, the Mo narchical Constitution. I pay little regard to the chalk scribb:ings upon our walls, well knowing that two or three mischievous hands may do all that iedone in that line of business. But I regard them as indications of what the agitators of the people mean who. cause them to be written ;. and for that purpose I advert to them at present. The whole wall of Hyde-p,irk, and other convenient places, is now ornamented in alternate quarters with the words " a lievalatio-n," and those of " No King;" that is, these nieu wish to make the people rep-- Illtionary and disloyal, by irnitiug them to it in these inscriptions. How many a-re the dupes of this trick, I know not ; but doubtless in:l-:1 are ; as many are dopes in a more innocent way, to more outrageous puffing. These agitators have gerieratty some cant word suited to• their purposes. The word now is Le gitimacy; held op by them as an object of oditrn and contempt. The word is foolishly Chosen,. because it seems rather to recommend. bastardy than any thing the. But object of attack- is HEREDITARY RIGIIT ; , wh ich they would persuade-; its is at once absurd and unjust. But the fact is quite the contrary. Claims f►om 'heredittrry right have been wi.sety preferred to art others, which Are less dear and unequivocal., as best ex cluding contentions and disputes-.

Those of Tuesday, which were due, Lave -not come to hand. The following are ex- tracts : " 26.—8 y a letter of the 34 inst. the Minister Secretary of Sta►e for the Interior informs the Prefects, that the Council3•General of Departments are- to be convoked immediately after the promulgation _of the Law reveCting the Budget for 1818. " A• Letter from Rhodez of the fith instant states, that iNladaMe Manson appeared very sou and seemed to have renounced the iilrj ea: of plC'atii►rg her own cause. She appeared, to 104 " ..-",'' ./~ -.1 trial. &c. were present. • f‘ The cause of the Duke of Orleans v.llien, came on again on Saturday. M. Dul►in was beard in reply for M. Jullien. It was then adjourned for eight clays. " MANN En 4, JAK.l9.—=According to letters from Frankfort M. de Steigentesch will proceed there soon, as Austrian Military Plenipotentiary Field-Marshal de W'rede, as Bavarian Military Plenipotentiary ; and Lieutenant-General Woellworth, in the same capacity, from Wurtem burg. " A Spanish Minister Plenipotentiary to the Germanic Diet is also expected shortly at Frank fort. " LUBEt:, JAN. 12.—Letters from Sweden state, that the opposition in tie Diet of that Kingdom has not actinired any consistence, and that its infh:ence is next to nothing. VIRNNA, JAN. 1.5.--The deaths. here (in ducting the suburbs) dfitiiig 1817 were 12,742, being an increase of 436 above those of 1816 ; amongst them were. 60 individuals from 90 to 100 years of age, and two who had completed their 100th year. The baptisms in 1817' were xl,2`_'B, being 320.1e5s than in 1.816. The'murriagvs iu ISI7 were 2,205, being 676 , less than in 1816.. FRANKFORT, JAN. 20.—The proposed basis For the military contingent, which subject was taken into consideration by the Diet yesterday, is 2. per Cent. upon the population. " It is now said,. that the meeting of some great Monarchs tvill take place, trot at Prague, as reported, but at Dusseldorff. " The Emperor Alexander will set out fron Moscow in March, to proceed -to' the Souther' Provinces of his Empire." Its it has been usual on the. Anniversary of this day, when a virtuous and well-meaning Mo narch ‘va3 deprived of his life by a band of such ffagirious Reformer's-as may be found. at this mo ment, for A SERMON to be preached on the occa sion, before the Legislative Bodies., we are much surprized that this salutary practice has been, omitted on the present occasion. Such a national tribute was calculated to revive in the minds of the People an akrful warning against the crimes which they might be led to commit, or, at least, to sanction by an abject submission to wicked Usurpers. Surely, at a time wheuTtli3 SPEECH tram Tug TetioNsdirected the attention- 0( .Par liarnent to the subject of RELIGION, and recom mended the erection of more Sacred Edifices for time support of the. national fai th,.the observance of the annualSOlemnity which-we have noticed, ‘ra9called for peculiarly on the present occasion, and therefore the omission may be thought to be neither suffi ciently respectful' to the Sovereign, or regardful of the feelings of a loyal and religion-, People. The eager exultation of the Party Prints, on account of the Repear of the HAWEAS CORPUS Sll3. PENSION BiLL , is perfectly ridiculous. One might suppose that die whole of the people had been in chains or confined in a Dungeon, when the truth is, that by that Act the Country was most proba bly kept free- from the danger of Rebellion and the horrors of Anarchy.—A Morning Paper re joices "in the happiness- we, experience at once again breathing the air of Liberty." Such exul tat'iOti at . l-3ast,,sistnpfe and harmless; for who hat been in the least:danger of haVing their liberty abridged bat the enemies- of their Country ; and can any man of common-sense; who- is really at tached to order, to the Constitution, awl to the Government of the Country, repine that such : people should' be restrained . from doing- mischief, whose guilt is morally certain, though it may not admit of legal proof ? But if there is si) ninth reason, in the opinion' o the Party Writers, to rejoice at this " restitution of oar Liherties," as another Party Print denominates the Repeal in question, is no credit due to Ministers for the zeal, the dispatch, and the eagerness with which they have carried the repeal into effect ?! No— it would spew great ignorance of the _temper of !the Opposition Writers to suppose they would give any to Ministers, even fo'r a cornpli once with their wishes, particularly as their sense ' less clatirours are suppOrted within doors.by silly Orators and tuou'd-be Politicians. But we may be permitted to rejoice in our turn that the Opposi tion and their Leaders have- no greater complaint against iNlinistira than that they adopted .a mea ,stkre es§entia.lJo. the internal s afety, of the Coun• icirtv,ire *itli tirreit6tteit to t;le .nerfittg of tire " Yesterday the King hell a Court at the ThuiHoles, which was numerously attended.
